Back To The Hard Times by The Young Novelists Lyrics

[Verse]
Brazen, blue on grey
Like secrets tucked away
It doesn't hurt you the same
And that makes it worse
There's nothing like a parade
Of promises you shouldn't have made
And what if you had stayed
To hear the second verse?

[Pre-Chorus]
And all these declarations leave me cold
And I'm not sold

[Chorus]
I keep on coming back
I keep on coming back
I keep on coming back to the hard times

[Verse]
There's a broken bike in our backyard
It shouldn't have to be so hard
Worrying at that scar
Is going to leave a mark
Cold sand on the beach
And cold stars out of reach
You're trying out your speech
As the days turn dark
[Pre-Chorus]
And all these declarations leave me cold
And I'm not sold

[Chorus]
I keep on coming back
I keep on coming back
I keep on coming back to the hard times

[Solo]

[Verse]
This little town by the bay
With secrets tucked away
There's a place that you can pray
And get no reply

[Pre-Chorus]
And all these declarations leave me cold
And I'm not sold

[Chorus]
I keep on coming back
I keep on coming back
I keep on coming back to the hard times
